Date: 12/9/12 1:00 AM Great! Looking forward to meeting you (and picking your brain about sewing in Auckland and just generally chatting about sewing).
I'm in Auckland for almost all of March - my sewing sister (same birth parents - in-joke, but will explain if you are mildly interested) will also be there. In fact it is her daughter we are staying with.
I'm excited already! |

I'm sure that Auckland sewers could fit in another getogether for you.
I know that if anyone (sewer, that is) was visiting Brussels, I would drop everything, with no hesitation at all, to meet up.
We sewers are considerate like that!
Obsessive,perhaps, but when did that become a bad thing?
